but your coconut oil should be. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve heard that coconut oil is a health and beauty miracle. I use Skinny Coconut oil because it is 100% pure, extra virgin, and 100% raw. They use coconuts from Vietnam and their special Nutralock System™ which “not only locks-in these vitamins and minerals, but prevents oxidation which can occur at high temperatures and reduce coconut oil’s role as an antioxidant in the body.” Here’s a list of a few things coconut oil can do for you. – Speeds up metabolism, reduces cholesterol, boosts energy, moisturizes nails/skin/hair, clears acne, fights stretch marks, smooths wrinkles, removes makeup, strengthens nails. So get with Skinny Coconut oil, and use it in more ways than one, oh, it’s also a lubricant ;)……
Sulfate free! Sulfates are harsh, synthetic salts that are used as cleaning agents in many of your beauty products. Sulfates can be harmful to the hair itself, stripping strands of their natural oils and leaving them prone to dryness, dullness, and breakage. They also cause major irritation to your scalp. One of the many reasons I am loving Briogeo shampoo cleanser is because it is sulfate free. It uses surfactants derived naturally from fatty & amino acids, vegetable & coconut oils, that cleanse the hair and produce major lather. The cleanser also has green tea antioxidants, bamboo & avocado, aloe, vitamins a & e, to give your hair shine and nourishment. So be gentle on your hair with Briogeo and be hard on someone else….

or just look like you did. I am currently obsessed with Alcame’s Endless Summer Beach hair Sea Salt Spray. It is part of their Island Collection- which, by the way, smells amazing! I have tried many salt sprays that advertise for the “beachy look” and none have delivered. They usually give my waves a little crunch and a lot of frizz. This product gave me zero frizz and total control, plus major shine. So look like an island girl with Alcame and do it in the sun….
with Maddyloo hair ties. These no-crease hair ties hold well without leaving a dent. They also look great when you’re wearing them on your wrist.

So hold your hair with Maddyloo and have someone help you get tied…..
